Lunix Power Buddy Scales Seamlessly with U Business Connectivity

Power on the move

Lunix Power Buddy was built on a simple idea: to make charging your phone easier when you're on the go.

With self-service rental kiosks placed across Malaysia, users just need to scan a QR code to borrow a power bank, then return it when they’re done.

As the business grew, keeping each kiosk reliably connected became more important than ever. Every transaction, update, and location check depended on real-time communication between devices.

At a glance

Before partnering with U Business, Lunix Power Buddy sometimes faced connectivity issues. But the switch to U Business’s M2M solution brought them seamless, reliable connectivity and more.

Connection troubles

Lunix Power Buddy's powerbank kiosks rely on real-time data transmission to track inventory, process payments, and manage their network of machines.

But standard SIM cards weren’t built for this kind of operation. They didn’t offer the reliability or resilience needed to support always-on devices. As more kiosks rolled out, network disruptions became a common issue.
